1 / 2FILE - In this Dec. 17, 2018, file photo, a man using a mobile phone walks past Google offices in New York. Executives from Google and Facebook are facing Congress Tuesday, April 8, 2019, to answer questions about their role in the hate crimes and the rise of white nationalism in the U.S.
Neil Potts, Facebook director of public policy, and Alexandria Walden, counsel for free expression and human rights at Google, defended policies at the two companies that prohibit material that incites violence or hate. Google owns YouTube. As the bickering went on, committee chairman Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., was handed a news report that included the hateful comments about the hearing on YouTube. He read them aloud, along with the users' screen names, as the room quieted.The hearing comes as the U.S. is experiencing an increase in hate crimes and hate groups.
But the challenges became clear as Cicilline pushed Potts to answer why Facebook did not immediately remove far-right commentator Faith Goldy last week, after announcing a ban on white nationalism on the social network. Potts reiterated that the company works to identify people with links to hate and violence and banishes them from Facebook.

Michelle Williams appears on Capitol Hill to support Paycheck Fairness ActMichelle Williams, who was paid less than 1% of what her male co-star received for same amount of work on the film 'All the Money in the World,' goes to Capitol Hill in support of the Paycheck Fairness Act. Screen Actors Guild dropped the ball. Actually, that is her fault for not having her manager negotiate better. How about people being paid according to their skillset, contributions to the bottom line, and (in her case) box office draw. Then she should also advocate for the male equipment grunts who worked even more than she did but got paid less than 1% what she earned.

A flood online of hate speech greets lawmakers probing Facebook and Google about white nationalismA congressional hearing to explore the spread of white nationalism on social media quickly illustrated the problem. A live chat alongside the YouTube stream featured anti-Semitic screeds and arguments that white nationalism is not a form of racism. I realize this is a free enterprise government, but the $$$ greed gets to be well extended at the price of millions of people. I wish more people could be humble with their success. Happy medium. If you notice that only white nationalism is being looked at not the hate and violence from antifa and black lives matter or the racism towards whites What about looking into Antisemitism in congress
